INTRODUCTION: As the field of radiation oncology continues to evolve with rapidly advancing technologies, the need for innovative educational methods is critical. Extended reality (XR) technologies-including virtual reality, augmented reality and mixed reality-have emerged as transformative tools in medical education. While the potential of XR in healthcare education is recognised, there is a lack of comprehensive exploration specifically in the context of radiation oncology education. This scoping review aims to map the existing literature on XR technologies in radiation oncology training and education, identify barriers to their adoption and highlight opportunities for broader integration into curricula. METHODS: This scoping review will follow the Arksey and O'Malley framework with enhancements by Levac and will adhere to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews guidelines. A comprehensive search will be conducted across databases, including MEDLINE, Scopus and Web of Science, to identify relevant studies on the use of XR technologies in radiation oncology education. Studies will be selected based on predetermined inclusion criteria using the population, concept, context framework. Data extraction will focus on the types of XR technologies used, educational settings, learning outcomes, barriers to adoption and methodologies for evaluating XR effectiveness. The results will be synthesised through descriptive statistics and qualitative thematic analysis. A consultation phase will engage experts to refine findings and ensure the practical relevance of the review. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: This protocol does not require ethics approval at the current stage as it involves a scoping review of publicly available literature. Ethics approval will be obtained prior to initiating the consultation phase involving experts. Written informed consent will be obtained from all individual participants included in the study. The study will be conducted in accordance with relevant guidelines and regulations and was approved by the Chang Gung Medical Foundation Institutional Review Board on 13 May 2025 (ref.: 202500731B0). The findings of this review will be disseminated through peer-reviewed publications, conference presentations and tailored executive summaries aimed at educators, policymakers and stakeholders in radiation oncology education.
引言:随着放射肿瘤学领域随着技术的迅速发展而不断演变,创新教育方法的需求至关重要。扩展现实(XR)技术——包括虚拟现实、增强现实和混合现实——已成为医学教育中的变革性工具。虽然XR在医疗保健教育中的潜力已得到认可,但在放射肿瘤学教育背景下缺乏具体的全面探索。本范围综述旨在梳理放射肿瘤学培训和教育中关于XR技术的现有文献,确定其应用的障碍,并突出更广泛地纳入课程的机会。 方法:本范围综述将遵循Arksey和O'Malley框架,并结合Levac的改进,同时将遵循《系统评价和元分析扩展的范围综述首选报告项目》指南。将在包括MEDLINE、Scopus和科学网在内的数据库中进行全面搜索,以识别关于XR技术在放射肿瘤学教育中应用的相关研究。将使用人群、概念、背景框架根据预先确定的纳入标准选择研究。数据提取将侧重于所使用的XR技术类型、教育环境、学习成果、应用障碍以及评估XR有效性的方法。结果将通过描述性统计和定性主题分析进行综合。将有一个咨询阶段,邀请专家完善研究结果并确保综述的实际相关性。 伦理与传播:本方案现阶段无需伦理批准,因为它涉及对公开可用文献的范围综述。在启动涉及专家的咨询阶段之前将获得伦理批准。将从研究中纳入的所有个体参与者处获得书面知情同意。本研究将按照相关指南和规定进行,并于2025年5月13日获得长庚医疗基金会机构审查委员会批准(参考号:202500731B0)。本综述的结果将通过同行评审出版物、会议报告以及针对放射肿瘤学教育中的教育工作者、政策制定者和利益相关者的定制执行摘要进行传播。
